Robert Mitchum was a legitimate tough guy.. His macho mannerisms were a templet.for Hoodlums everywhere ..They copied his swaggering walk, hell, others even smoked their cigarettes like him. .Mtchum's machismo didn't only extend to the silver screen, he became double-tough as a result of many barroom brawls Mitchum regularly caught the Friday night fight card at the Olympic auditorium with his friend, mobster, Anthony "the Animal "Fiato . Mitchum and Fiato were both boxing buffs.. They would go toe-to-toe for hours calling each others favorite fighter a bum , or tomato can.. Fiato says Mitchum's love for boxing can best be described by this Quote from the movie"The Champion".. " Hell , I'm a sucker, I just cant help watching a couple of good boys in action"
